Tripods are made to be versatile, sturdy, and durable enough to withstand heavy use. However, not all tripods are made alike. The Extended Length Surveyors Tripod with Composite Head by Dutch Hill is one of the best examples of a tripod that’s well-designed and made with high-quality materials.

Because surveying jobs can be quite varied, surveying tripods are thus exposed to different kinds of environments and temperatures. In situations where there may be some expected temperature changes, a fiberglass tripod like this one is a great choice. Fiberglass doesn’t contract and expand along with temperature changes like aluminum does, which means that it won’t affect the accuracy of mounted data collecting instruments.

The tripod’s components are also corrosion-resistant, which contributes to its reliability. Furthermore, these components were mechanically fastened onto the tripod legs to ensure reliability and to make the parts easier to replace when necessary.

The ELT300 was also designed to have wide, study legs for extra durability. Additionally, these legs have Quick Lock positive clamping leg adjustment to make setting up easier and quicker. This way, users can save both time and manpower.

Dutch Hill has made a name for itself as one of the top manufacturers of tripods and other surveying equipment. Extended Length Surveyors Tripod with Composite Head and other Dutch Hill Products are available here on Engineer Warehouse.
